  1. i doubt that too. 12 to 3 cost 3 first rounders. 15 to 2 is an even bigger leap. has anyone ever done a leap that big in the modern draft? i dont know.
  2. but that's why its unrealistic to think the eagles would give up 3 or 4 first rounders to move up in this year's draft.
  3. i was told gorsuch, kavanaugh and acb were just shills who were beholden to trump and would rule for him every chance they got. guess not, eh?
  4. hmmm...i dont know what you actually think, but what you post on here is usually a pretty dim view of america. the reality is that america is a pretty nice place when compared to most of the rest of the world. that's not said in a "were the greatest country on earth" mumbo jumbo, but just a statement on how rich we are and how much space we have. we take america for granted because we live here. most of us wouldnt last five months in india without feeling homesick and pining away for an suv or a football game. and like i said before, india has nit vaccinated 90% of its population. 47% is probably a doctored estimate too.
  5. going from 2 to 15 is a LOOOOOOOOONG drop. has anyone ever dropped that far in round one? you better come with multiple future #1s. in other words, it would never happen.
  6. can he play? or is he like his brother, big strong and not much skill.
  7. probably the ecuadorian lesbian goat herders. felt they were getting short shrift.
  8. would you outlaw prison guard unions? they lobby the state to increase the prison population all the time. and unlike "for profit" prisons, state prisons are where most criminals are housed.
  9. i'd be fine with that. then take a receiver. but i dont think howell lasts that long. too many teams need qbs.
  10. no, i'm not. edman's chart seems more like the chart i would expect to see.
  11. that chart seems more like the consensus on where fox news would be located.
  12. i dont listen to either anymore so i really cant say. i only watch fox on election night when cnn is at commercial. i got tired of stories about poor guatemalan lesbian sheep herders and their fight against american sexist imperialism, so i stopped listening to npr.
  13. looks like they have npr in two places. one further left than the other.
  14. that political bias chart in that website has npr skewing further to the left than fox does to the right.
  15. i dont think npr is extreme at all, but they are left. and not because of their vocabulary either.
  16. npr is not fox news of the left, but they are to the left of most americans.
  17. i mean, sotomayor and gorsuch issued a joint statement saying it was bullshit and that they're friends and even though they disagree on the law they still get along. then the chief issued a separate statement. so it obviously struck a chord with everyone involved. im sure nothing will happen to nina totenberg for giving a false report.
  18. roberts came out and said he never asked the justices to wear masks, thus proving the report false.
  19. https://blockclubchicago.org/2022/01/19/west-side-murder-surge-was-driven-by-social-media-old-conflicts-now-groups-are-working-to-chart-a-path-to-peace/?utm_source=Pico&utm_campaign=6600aee44f-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2022_01_06_03_09_COPY_01&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_b6b84a5cee-6600aee44f-124063403&mc_cid=6600aee44f&mc_eid=30fe6c2596 GARFIELD PARK — A West Side police district has seen more homicides and carjackings than any other during the two-year pandemic surge in violence — but area leaders say they are working to stop beefs before they erupt and chart a path to peace in the longterm. The 11th Police District — which includes parts of Austin, Lawndale and East and West Garfield Park — had 105 homicides in 2021, up from 103 in 2020 and 74 in the year prior, according to police data. While Chicago experienced a citywide surge in violent crime in 2021, West Side neighborhoods in the 11th District have long struggled with shootings and homicides. While the district has had the most murders of any district citywide for at least a decade, there has been a significant increase — in 2011, the district had 44 homicides, less than half the number last year. Carjackings in the 11th District have risen sharply since the pandemic began. In 2019 when there were 79, in 2020 there were 185 and in 2021 there were 192, according to police data.
  20. and i did say the electoral reform act was the important issue, which would help stop the issue of replacing electoral approval boards with party hacks who will veto anything.
  21. "The first big development on the rules front that many progressives seem to have overlooked is that there’s a growing body of evidence suggesting that voter suppression tactics are marginally effective at best, and maybe not effective at all. Studies of voter ID laws used to find small effects: This study that looked at 2012 found that voter ID laws lowered turnout in two states by two percent, and this somewhat-disputed study found a similar-sized effect (but, strangely, the effect was smallest on Black voters, one of the obvious targets of these laws). Some analyses that claimed to find larger effects were later found to be flawed. When German Lopez reviewed the literature on voter ID laws in 2016, he found that the effect was small to non-existent. Voter turnout among all minority groups rose between 2016 and 2020, and also between the 2014 and 2018 midterms. " from jeff maurer.
  22. i would be wary of green bay receivers not named davonte adams. rogers makes them all look better than they are. allen robinson is a free agent. he had an injury filled year last year but might be less expensive this time around. i think the draft should hopefully net them at least one solid receiver. maybe two.
